Plane searched in Kansas City after threat report

An official says an American Airlines flight from Chicago's O'Hare Airport was taken to a remote area at Kansas City International Airport and searched after it landed because of a bomb threat.

Joe McBride, a spokesman for the Kansas City Aviation Department, said Friday that someone made a comment about a bomb, although it wasn't clear if it was one of the 67 passengers on Flight 4222 Thursday night or if it was phoned in.

The passengers and crew disembarked in a remote area of the airport and FBI agents searched the plane.
